Steve came to our home after we sent photos of our armoire to him on line to see if he could convert an unusable TV cabinet into a cabinet we could use for clothes. We made an appointment to show him the cabinet, and he arrived on time and took measurements of our cabinet, provided a written quote and we considered the price reasonable for the work required. We agreed on a three-week timeframe for the work to be done. We were extremely pleased with the finished drawers Steve came back with for the top of the armoire. He built the lower drawers in our home, and also stained them there as well to match the armoire. The stain overall wasn't exact but close enough to be a reasonable match to the armoire, and since they wont show, it wasn't critical that the stain match exactly. Steve was professional, and also volunteered a couple of restaurants for us to try since we were new to the area! We wouldn't hesitate to hire Steve Janosko again, and would HIGHLY recommend his services if anyone needs cabinetry work done. We are sure he will deliver exceptional work. I took photos of the before and after, but I can't figure out how to include them in this review!
Description of Work: Steve converted an unusable large Armoire that we used to have in our former home as a TV cabinet into a much needed storage cabinet by making drawers to fit the top and the bottom. We are extremely pleased with the way the job turned out, and working with Steve was a delight.

He was really good and gave me a really good estimate. It was a very fair estimate. He showed up when he was supposed to show up and he was a nice guy. He was professional. However, I didn’t use him because the guy who painted the exterior of my house gave me a price that was the same as Steve’s price. So, I had the other guy do the wood rot work and paint the house instead of bringing two different people in. The price quoted by Stephen Janosko might have been a little bit high, but it was the lowest price that I got. So, I thought it was a pretty good price. There was a lot of wood work to be done. I am going to ask him to come back to give me another price on something else. Stephen was one of the better guys I had the opportunity to deal with.
Description of Work: I received an estimate from Stephen Janosko either in May or June of 2011 for fixing the wood rot.

Due to repair on our front brick steps and wood rot of the posts and some balusters, the handrails and balusters on the steps had to be rebuilt. Since matching materials were not available, the entire porch rails and balusters had to be removed and replaced. I ordered handrails and balusters from a local lumber company. The wood handrails and balusters did not fit together as we had expected, but Steve came up with a solution quickly and the final result is better than the original plan that I had requested. He fabricated a subrail that fit into the plowed handrail and accommodated the balusters. The final product is very neat and very sturdy. We will definitely call Steve again when we need a professional carpenter.
Description of Work: Steve installed rails and balusters on our front porch and steps.

The work was excellent. He's a very nice, pleasant, reliable man. He is a very good carpenter. The price is right, too.
Description of Work: He did some rotten wood replacement around the front door and exterior of the house. He trimmed some new windows. He also did trimming around molding in the ceiling that needed repair.
Steve came and looked at the list I had, marked what he was able to do, gave an estimate for the work, came punctually every day and worked long and hard to complete the projects. He cleaned up his work areas, apprised me of any problems he encountered, never did anything without consulting me first. As he worked, he found additional problem areas which he pointed out to me. It was my call to add them to the list or not... I did! He was so easy to work with! He had some very creative ideas on to rectify some issues that were really an annoyance to me. He came highly recommended by word of mouth and lived up to every glowing report I had from several other satisfied customers.
Description of Work: Steve came to do wood related projects. The list grew from there, as he is quite capable in many areas. However, the larger projects were refinishing and/or replacing window sills, exterior doors, siding; strengthening deck by adding lag bolts; adjusting interior and exterior doors that did not close properly; reinforcing floor joists. There were also additional small projects such as adding insulation; replacing flexible duct work for the clothes dryer with metal; shelving for the laundry room; patching holes in drywall; replacing missing shoe molding and cabinet trim. He is knowledgeable, efficient, punctual, reasonable, hard-working and has an amazing repertoire - although his specialty is anything wood related. He knows his limitations and can often suggest alternative contractors for those items. He is a delight to work with and does quality work.
